The spot price of 6-, 8-, and 12-inch silicon wafers has fallen for the first time in three years. Taiwanese business journal UDN notes that this is the first dip in wafer pricing since the start of ...
Photonic integrated circuits, or in short, PICs, utilize particles of light, better known as photons, as opposed to electrons that run in electronic integrated circuits. The main difference between ...
As we (TIRIAS Research) have written about previously, semiconductor supplier GlobalFoundries (GF) announced in early 2018 that the company was dropping its plans to develop a leading-edge 7nm process ...
An Intel Tunnel Falls quantum chip on a silicon wafer. The wafer is capable of up to 12 qubits of quantum processing. The hardware giant sees this as a step along its path towards ‘full-stack’ quantum ...
FREMONT, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 31, 2026 / Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:AEHR), a leading provider of test and burn-in solutions for semiconductor devices used in artificial intelligence (AI), data ...
With a thickness of only 20 µm and a diameter of 300 mm, Infineon’s silicon power wafers are the thinnest in the industry. These ultra-thin wafers are a quarter the thickness of a human hair and half ...
True to Moore’s Law, the number of transistors on a microchip has doubled every year since the 1960s. But this trajectory is predicted to soon plateau because silicon — the backbone of modern ...
Wafers are transported between stages in the EFEM and cleaning module. In the grinding module, the wafers move from rough grinding to finish grinding as the index table rotates. To improve the ...
imec, a Belgium-based research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, has announced “a significant milestone in silicon photonics” with the successful demonstration of ...
